Detailed Description

Generic structure used to refer to files in the file system.

A file will typically have a name and metadata. This structure holds that type of information. When deleted files are being processed, this structure may have the name defined but not metadata because it no longer exists. Or, if you are calling meta_walk and are not processing at the name level, then the name will not be defined. always check these to make sure they are not null before they are read.
